Mad Butcher
About
Mad Butcher serves South Island with a butcher's counter at 227 Blenheim Road, Riccarton, Christchurch 8041, New Zealand. The 4.3 out of 5 average comes from 188 reviews, a solid tally for a butcher's counter. Riccarton sits on the western side of Christchurch, and Blenheim Road is a main artery linking the city to the surrounding suburbs, so the shop is straightforward to reach by car or bus from the central city.
Christchurch anchors the island's eastern edge, with Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim and Queenstown further afield across the South Island. The doors open at 07:00 and close at 18:00 every day of the week, giving a wide window for a morning or late-afternoon stop. As a butcher, the counter deals in cuts prepared on site, and the review count points to a settled trade rather than passing traffic.
English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, which shapes what is available at different times of year.
The Southern Alps run down the South Island, and the North Island has a volcanic plateau with hot springs and geysers. A website at http://www.madbutcherricartton.co.nz/riccarton carries the shop's own information. Kaikoura lies within reach for anyone travelling the island's east coast.
